:rofl: :howler: Now, you're just talking out of your ass, absolutely tripping. Luca Toni was a nobody, a journeyman striker who got his big break at 28 years of age. Before that, he was plying his trade for the likes of mighty Palermo and Brescia. He had 3-4 years playing at the highest level.
At least he was a top scorer, WC winning starter, and performed well at a super club like Bayern.

I would love a Dybala like this.

I hope that the morons who bash him are happy with our 4th place finish in Serie A this season.

All those winning goals in the last 5 years when we were on the backfoot and needed someone to step up, he never got the credit he deserved.

Now in the first proper season without him, we are about to lose our first Scudetto in a decade (and by a big margin).

Ungrateful bitches :disagree:

Performed well for like 1.5 seasons before he was sold.

A top scorer for a team like Fiorentina. Ok.

I get the hate, but at least be objective.

Luca Toni was a non factor, aside from that one game against Ukraine, for Italy at the World Cup in 2006.

No starter can be called a non-factor IMO. Less impact than others maybe, but never non-factor.

Regarding Dybala: I respect you guys' loyalty to him, but trust me you will forget him the moment he's gone.
This won't be like the Vidal or Pogba sales.

True but that would largely depend on what kind of replacement Tici is going to bring.

Our midfield is suffering right now not exactly because we lost Vidal and Pogba, it's because the replacements have been subpar and underwhelming for a good 4-5 seasons now.

Will have to sell the entire team then.

Morons have been bashing Dybala for a long time for only showing up in Serie A and not doing it in Europe.

We should sell him so we can win the CL, they said.

Without him we got knocked out by Porto

Without him we can't even compete for Serie A :lol:

Enjoy your 4th place finish, ungrateful bitches
With him we got knocked out by Lyon... kind of the same thing... and his terrible form was a big part of getting knocked out by Ajax the previous year, and his red card a big part of getting knocked out by Madrid the year before that...

There is a middle ground, ya know. Dybala is a top class player but can be frustratingly inconsistent at times. Doesn’t mean we should sell him. Or that we shouldn’t pay him a reasonably high wage, but it means that he needs to improve his consistency too..

:agree:

I criticize Dybala myself and don’t mind others doing so, but the lack of perspective on some of these Dybala bashing posts is weird as fuck.

I agree that he needs to improve his consistency, but on average he is still a top 3 player in our team.

This obsession with bashing a top 3 player in our team is weird when there are so many players who are worse than him, players who are starting on a weekly basis and holding us back.

Most of this bashing is based around "he wants 15m", something that has never been confirmed.

If Paratici gets Haaland or someone of that level, he will quickly be forgotten.

But if he gets Icardi, then we might have problems. PSG want to dump him to some desperate team asap and that's not a good sign at all..

    Icardi couldn't be as bad as Dybala in this season. I don't think we'd have any problems. If anything we'd score more goals.

    But of course I'd prefer to see Haaland here -- which is rather impossible.

    So you'd want someone who'd be a marginal improvement over current version of Dybala?

    I would've been convinced this would be the right move 3 years ago. Not now. It's not a good sign when Pocchettino prefers a young rookie like Kean over him.
